Jumpstarting your Business with Social Media

One of Southeastern Wisconsin's leading Social Media firms is teaming up with the newest hotel in Menomonee Falls to help local businesses take advantage of the Social Media phenomenon. Trivera Interactive presents "Jump Starting Your Business with Social Media", Thursday, July 14th from 4 to 6pm at the new Radissson Hotel, Main Street and Hwy 45, in Menomonee Falls.

The two hour event begins in the Radisson Ballroom with Trivera President and author Tom Snyder presenting: "Social Media - Fun and Games or Powerful Business Tool." Snyder is a regular speaker on the topic of Social Media and Web marketing at events like the Biz Times Biz Tech Expo, Metropolitan Builders Association, Social Media Breakfast, the Nonbox Winter Marketing Summit, and many other trade group and association events. The presentation will cover how to develop your strategy to determine which Social Media sites present the greatest chance for success, and then giving a brief overview of the most common uses of Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare, YouTube and more.

Following the presentation, Snyder and other local experts will be on hand in the RBG Bar and Grill Restaurant, also at the New Radisson, for an hour to provide hands-on training and one on one Q&A.
